Exciting MLB Predictions: Home Runs in Thursday Night's Games
Transcript
00:00All right, Taters for tonight, only three games now, I think.
00:06Oh, into the ninth, there you go with that game, into the ninth.
00:10All right, we have a limited slate of games, as we just mentioned, only three, but that
00:15does not mean that we are going to have a limited slate of Taters.
00:20We are going to try to hit the long ball here in all three of these spots tonight, and I
00:25think, Scotty, that this first game is the one that we have our best chance to load up
00:31and let it fly, and that is Baltimore and Boston tonight at Camden, obviously because
00:37we also have a couple of guys on the mound who give up a lot of home runs.
00:40We will start with Raphael Devers for the Red Sox, plus four hundy for him tonight.
00:45How's this sound, Scotty?
00:47Six for 13 with two homers off of Eflin in his career.
00:51That sounds pretty good to me.
00:53Eflin's allowed 16 home runs so far this season.
00:56Give me Devers, Scotty, to kick things off tonight for the Red Sox.
00:59Yeah, I don't have a problem with that, but I got to be honest with you, on the other
01:05side, I think there's guys like Gunnar Henderson hit his 30th last night, so he's seeing it
01:11really well.
01:13I could see O'Hearn jacking one.
01:16I could see Adley Rushman jacking one.
01:19He can hit from either side, right?
01:23And your boy Holiday.
01:24How about this kid?
01:25Why not him from the left side to hit one again?
01:29Why don't we do that?
01:30Let's go.
01:31Here we go.
01:32Gunnar Henderson, plus 500 tonight.
01:33He had a home run last night.
01:34Hopefully that starts to get things cooking here.
01:37Pavetta has allowed 19 home runs in 95 innings pitched this year.
01:43That is not a good ratio, and yes, Scotty, I even have Holiday on there.
01:48Homer Simpson got called up a couple weeks ago, and look at his number, 875 for Jackson.
01:54Holiday tonight.
01:55Are you kidding me?
01:56Let's go, baby.
01:57We'll be rich.
01:58And by the way.
01:59Yes, go ahead.
02:00By the way, you're right.
02:03That game is in the eighth.
02:05I've been watching it, and I just completely F'd that up.
02:08It's the eighth, because they had runners on first and second with one out, down a run
02:13in the seventh, and they couldn't get anything going.
02:16They struck out swinging to end the inning, and so the Dodgers are still up 4-3, and Hudson's
02:24on the mound for the Brewers, but they're down a run in the top of the eighth.
02:29All right.
02:30There you go.
02:31And like I said, Henderson, Holiday, and honestly, I think anyone on Baltimore, if someone you
02:37really like out there, Santander, Couser even, in the leadoff spot tonight, O'Hearn, as you
02:43mentioned, I think that the Orioles can have themselves a good, a fun night against Nick
02:47Pavetta.
02:48All right.
02:49Nationals and the Phillies tonight.
02:50Of course, we have a lefty on the mound with Mitchell Parker-Lewis can't lose, but we have
02:54Kyle Schwarber, Scotty, and he can equalize pretty much anybody.
02:57He's got six home runs in the month of August.
02:59He's coming off the Grand Slam last night against the Fish.
03:03There's at home at the bank, Parker.
03:05He gives up homers.
03:07He's not susceptible.
03:08He's very susceptible to them.
03:09All three undies for Kyle Schwarber tonight to get things rocking.
03:13Oh, I mean, honestly, uh, does he hit the lefties as well?
03:21I mean, can he jack one on this kid?
03:24Yes.
03:25Cause I kind of like, uh, I like Turner.
03:27I like Bohm and I like your boy Real Muto.
03:33Yeah.
03:34A little Real Muto tonight.
03:37We can get involved with him.
03:39They have not faced, uh, Mitchell Parker yet, uh, this season or in their careers, nobody
03:44in the Philly lineup has seen him before.
03:47So this is going to be the first time for everyone.
03:49Uh, Real Muto is in the lineup.
03:51Turner's in the lineup after a night off last night, uh, Bohm, et cetera.
03:54So you can go with the righties too, if you so choose.
03:57All right.
03:58Other game in Texas between the twins and the Rangers, Royce Lewis, Scotty plus three
04:0360 on the twin side of things.
04:05This is a guy right here who mashes left-handed pitching.
04:08You have Bradford on the mound, hasn't been great so far in terms of the homers, four
04:12homers and 30 innings for Bradford.
04:15I will take Lewis who of course always beats up on lefties.
04:18And in the other side, Simeon Scotty is where I'm going to go against Dober five for nine
04:23with two homers in his career and a great price at plus five 20.
04:27I'm going to throw in Jose Miranda, the D H with nine home runs and he's sitting over
04:34300.
04:35I'm going to throw him in there as well.
